+ The ship lands on a ridge of ground in the middle of the Ooskla Swamplands. It is a creepy murky dark place.

+ Nella steps out the door and steps into the goo with her shoes.

+ If Nella has no Shoe Leggings

Nosey Nella: Eww, I wish i had changed my wardrobe and brought Swamp-Proof shoes. Its all getting into my feet, ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww. What a horrible feeling. I can't go through the swamp with you guys, I dont' have any Shoe Leggings.

+ Nella can't go any further into the Swamp Region because she dosen't have thenecessary prerequisites (dosen't have the shoe leggings) to protect her feet from the goo. In order for Nella to proceed, you need to find her some Leggings.

Herc Commander: Nella is out of luck I'm afraid. ARRGHHH that means the rest of usare also penalized because Nella dosen't have the right gear on yet. No fair, Ithe game just penalized only Nella and not the rest of us.

Loana: Well looks like we have to find a trader to get something for Nella

Return

---------------------------------------------------------

+ If Nella has the Leggings

Nosey Nella: Well I'm glad I brought those old metal leggings and shoes. They give good protection against the goo that's in the swamp

Head North Into The swampGo back

- end of this area script

+ The Buzz bans start to appear again.

Commander: Not this time you fiends.

+ The Buzz Bans are blinded by the Reflective shiny material on the Suitsthey crash into one another and then they dissapear again.

Storm: Ah hah, Lindsey was right, it did blind them

Nosey Nella Parkas: But for how long?

+ Two more Buzzbans appear.

Commander: They're back.

+ The Buzz bans are blinded again and crash and dissapear.

Storm: This now makes it more easier now to wander through the swamplands in these stupid looking shiny suits.

Head North of SwamplandsHead South of SwamplandsHead back to the ship

Commander: Urgh, what a messy place.

Open Chest #2 in the mudOpen Chest #3 in the mudHead EastHead NorthGo back

+ Nella's Camera Damage has been upgraded. She can now to 120 damage with the camera instead of 90.

+ Swampgnat 07 buzzes around in a circle but ignores the party+ Swampgnat 08 attacks for 200 damage to Axle + Axle hits Swampgnat 08 for 500 damage OVERKILL. it is defeated+ You obtain 20 credits

Go North again to pile of urns (script below)Go back the way you came

Commander: A big pile of urns is sitting over here.

Herc Commander: Urgh, Apart from all the mud and goo in our shoes as a result of wading through this messy place, those half-submerged urns maybe all full of goo as well. I don't think I want to even search through them Commander, I don't like getting my hands in goo.

Commander: We will search them Herc, that's an order.

Loana: We can scan them instead. Oh Drat we can't, something is inhibiting our scans. we cannot penetrate through the outer coverings of these urns. Must be made of special stuff if our scanners to not be able to read what's inside them.

William Smith: I think the Writing Department is responsible for putting that so-calledimpenetrable scan story-line.

+ You come across a door with a strange-looking device on it with 8 empty Swamp Ring slots. + If Already found swampring

Storm: so they were useless Items Commander? We will need to put in 8 swamprings to open up this mysterious door. Bah, what an insult. I should just blast this door all down and get in my way instead of messing about with finding stupid puzzles pieces to try to open it.

Herc Commander: Blast this place with that gun Storm and it will all go up like theBlunderbust. It is like Besai remember.

Storm: Erm, yeah, you could be right. Too dangerous to use the dark matter weapon in here then.

Loana: Ooskla couldn't handle it with the broken weather machine, it would breakthe planet all apart.

Commander: Well I didn't know we would need them. We will have to find all 8 of them.

Storm: Another Treasure Hunt quest?, urgh. Let's get going then. It could take forever to find them in all of this swampy muck.

Loana: The urns would be a good place to check.

Rex: And run into all the nasty little surprises that are hidden inside these wretched things?. No Thanks. I'm aint going to open it.

Head towards North Opening (script below div 2)Open Swamping Door (script below)Insert Swamp Ring into Door SlotGo back the way you came

---------Ooskla System Swamplands Swampring Door --------------------

+ If no Swamprings

+ You do not have any swamprings to insert into the door slots.

Storm: You need to find all the swamp rings to open this door commander.

Commander: I can see that. We better go find them.

Nosey Nella Parkas: Oh Goody, A treasure hunt. Looking for icky Gooey rings in the swamp. Umm wait a minute, that dosen't sound so appealing when I stop and thinkabout it. Ewwwwwwwwwwwww.

Loana: Ewwwwwww is right. Urgh how offputting it is to have to go find these horrible rings in all of that swampy muck and goo and also be attacked by all the swamp gnats that exist in this god awful place.

+ If you have more than 1 swampring

+ You insert a swampring into the door.+ If all swamprings have been inserted in the door.+ You have no more swamprings left to insert the slots are all full.

+ The Door starts opening up.

Go inside the roomleave

+ You find a Door To Somewhere inside the room.+ If already visited Door to Somewhere on Ror Space Station

Commander: Hey look, its another one of those doors to Somewhere.

Storm: Oh no. You remember what happened the last time we went through one of those doors.

Nosey Nella Parkas: What's it doing in the middle of the Ooskla Swamplands?

Herc Commander: Who knows, maybe it leads to the switch to turn off thatUnmappable Forest, the one with the magic barrier.

Commander: Could be, we will have to step through the door to find out.

Step into the Door to SomewhereExamine items on the ground in the cornerExit room

Commander: Ah hah look we have been transported at the magic barrier again.

Storm: There must be a switch around here somewhere to shut that thing off.

Storm: I can't wait to see the silly look on that gatekeeper's face when we shut down this annoying magic barrier once and for all. At last we will be able to get into the Forest without having to find that stupid little map of his.+ The Lever is pulled, and it breaks off in the Commander's hand.

Commander: Oh no, the lever just snapped off in my hand.

Herc Commander: Oh Commander, you have really done it this time.

Commander: Oops. I didn't know it was gonna just snap off in my hand like that.

Storm: What have you done. Put it back on and hope nobody will notice.

+ The lever just falls off

Commander: Sorry, no can do, it won't stay put.

Loana: Well at least we were lead to the switch but it turned out to be a dud.Look there's a note nearby to it. Let's see what it says. Oh its another one ofthose silly cheeky notes from the developer.

Read The Cheeky noteReturn back to Door to Somewhere

+ Congratulations you found the switch to turn off the magic barrier. But we knew you would try to bypass the unmappable map quest to try to cheat so we put this fake rigged switch instead in to distract you. We went through a lot of trouble trying to get the Polygons to snap off just in the right order with the Kinetics Body Asset that we put into the blueprint.

It took our animation team half the day to get this looking perfect. We hope you do appreciate the extra care and loving detail we went through to produce a realistic looking lever snap. Of course to take down that impassable magic barrier, you have to do the unmappable quest and help the gatekeeper find his lost map. Sorry those are the RPG rules around here. NO SHORTCUTS. Once again we admire all the hard work and dedication we did of our animated lever snap. I could talk all day about how fascinating the physics are when you watch that sucker break. Ahem now where was I, oh yes, you will have to go through the Swamp Gnats to find the map if you want to get that magic barrier to come down. Sorry. Can't make everything all easy for you.

Cheeky Game Developer.

Oh P.S There is a Orb of Wonder amongst the items in the Door To Somewhere for your troubles in finding all eight of the filthy swamp rings. If you are lucky you could get thousands of credits but if you hit all the bad numbers in the array then you get just tiddlywinks. Or you might find a couple of bonus items you need. Those are the realities of being in an Rpg Game.

Storm: Bah, I'm not interested in hearing how much time they spent on the aesthetics over trying to animate this one stupid little lever. The cheek of this guy making us go through all the trouble of finding all these dirty grubby swamp rings and also getting attacked by those annoying swamp gnats just to get those rings and then once we get that stupid door finally open, we get given a fake rigged-up switch and another cheeky note for all our troubles. And an Orb of Wonder. What nerve this game developer has. Why I ought to.

Loana: Calm down Storm. Let's just see what the Orb of Wonder gives us.

Commander: Yeah, this is a odd game alright. Let's go find the map then and get in the proper way since there's no other way of getting into this forest zone.

Storm: Sorry, I don't have any pest control grenades on me. You have to get them from a special planet called PokPok. I know of a trader there that sells them to pest-infested planets like the one we're standing on now. They are very effective.

Herc Commander: Awww. Well that dosen't do us any good being attacked by these annoying things and the weapon we need to take care of them is found on another planet instead in another system they will leech us to death if we are not careful of watching our shields and our health.

William Smith: So what do we do, just keep fighting these swampgnats, or have to leaveOoskla and go all the way to this planet to get those pet control grenades just towipe these annnoying swampcreatures out. What am i doing trying to fight these crazycreatures in only a cheap army shirt and uniform. I don't even have a steel reinforced suit.ouch, these creatures have quite a nip, stop leeching me. Urghh.

Storm: I rather we leave this cursed infested place and never come back.

Loana: I guess that means having to break out the emergency stocks if anyone in the party's health gets dangerously low. Ouch, we can hardly talk without these swampgants attacking us again, we better finish the job.

+ Swampgnat 16 has recovered and starts flying towards the Commander.+ The Commander Backhands Swampgnat 16 out of the air for 600 damage OVERKILL+ Swampgnat 16 has been defeated

Commander: Well, That erm did the trick.

William Smith: How lame looking.

Storm: Now we can go over and see what it was that I spotted over there.

Go over to the strange thing in the swamp Storm Spotted.Go further ahead to the next areaGo West to next areaGo back the way you came

+ You see a swamp ring lying on the ground.

Commander: Another one of those rings. Good.
